Hmm it doesn’t note you as a mod so. Did you ever work at boot camp?

Moderators list on the right hand side maybe? My partner ran a bootcamp called Buildschool, which was a free in person iOS bootcamp from 2017 to 2019. That turned into Formation when I work now, which isn't a bootcamp but I absolutely have bias as a result. We work with engineers who are already employed as SWEs prepare for upcoming interviews and job hunts. So I've worked with a lot of bootcamp grads later on in their careers (about 1/3 or so of people we work with). As a result I hear a lot about a lot of the top bootcamps. But I'm also bias because the more people that go to bootcamps the more people need Formation later on.... but ironically I get yelled at for bias AGAINST bootcamps for some reason, which makes no rational sense to me.
